-There is a rumor that Blondin has offered
"Sir Roger" one thousand dollars a week for
six months to "do" the United Kingdom with
him-two performances a day, "Roger" to
cross the rope on the Niagara hero's back at
each performance.
-Advices from Parla allege that the great
loan, intended to be Introduced In order to
accelerate the departure- ol the German
troops from the occupied departments, will
probably be launched in the first or second
week of August, ana la London as well as lu
France.
:-The State of Texas would contain the en?
tire population of the United States, without
making lt any more thickly settled than Mas?
sachusetts, and the same State would hold the
entire population of the French Empire, for
Republic that dow ls) and leave uninhabited
a margin ot sixty miles around the boundary
of the State.
-Horace Greeley owns ' some five hun?
dred to Blx hundred acres or land In Bucking?
ham County, Virginia. The circumstances
tinder which he acquired his landed posses"
pions were characteristic of his generosity and
kindliness. Somebody who had been induced
by the representations ot the Tribune and by
. Mr. Greeley's personal advice to Invest in Vir?
ginia lands, came back to him not long after
and complained that he had been swindled by
the land agents. Mr. Greeley did not have
time to listen to the man's reproaches, or to
make any explanation, and simply proposed
to take the land off hiB bands, to which the
other gladly and promptly consented. The land
lies In the gold mine district ol Buckingham
County, and ls said to be very poor and worth?
less.
-Libbie Garrabrant, the Paterson, N. J.
murderess, has at last been informed that the
Court of Pardons did not commute her sen?
tence to imprisonment for life, which the ill
judged dispute ot a clerk In the office ot the
Seeretary ot State had informed ber had been
the case. She learned the truth by accident,
the jail warden, Mr. Good ridge, having hesi?
tated to tell her till the couit should finally
adjourn, fearing the effect upon her. But
when she had learned that she had still the
prospect of death before her, she betrayed no
emotion. Meeting Mr. Good ridge, she sa!.r
"So my sentence wasn't commuted after ali,
eh V* Mr. Goodrldge informed her that no
official notice had yet been received, and the
girl conversed about the matter with much
unconcern and carelessness of manner. Her

-The prize ring has been supposed to be
about as brutal a spectacle as men in cold blood
could look upon, enjoy and encourage; but a
desperate duel at Hoboken between two
butchers proves the' contrary. These men, ]
whose names were John Fallon and Cornelius 1
Leary, having been at work in their slaughter t
honse, became involved in a quarrel at "clear- ,
leg op" time as to who should do the work.
The bitter words soon brought them to blows, 1
and, stripped as they were, they engaged in '
savage combat, when a crowd of men were
attracted to the spot, who separated them;
bot the combatants were not satisfied, and
threatened and dared until lt was proposed
that they should adjourn to the meadows be?
tween Hoboken and Jersey City and effectu- ?,
?Ry settle it. The crowd of botchers followed
and formed a ring. Both the bloody duel?
ists were armed with butcher knives, with '
the understanding, lt ls said, that they should 1
lise them; al any rate the struggle had not 1
progressed far when Leary's weapon flashed
oat in the gas-light and was burled in Fallon';
abdomen above the right hip. Leary then I ]
broke through the circle and ran toward Jer- ] 1
sey city, and the sanguinary crowd, but little
less guilty than he, dispersed, leaving the
wounded and dying man on the grass. .An j
officer discovered him, and also went after and
arrested Leary, who was himself hurt, but
not seriously.
-The Germans have been transplanting
their peculiar military tactics into the Western
continent, ana have given the frightened clti
zensof Port-au-Prince a taste of the Kaiser's
imperiousness. Certain outrages having been
committed upon German citizens by the indis- |
cree t Kay tiens, a German man-of-war obtalnep
prompt reparation by seizing two Haytlen war j ]
veBseia and threatening the town with bom?
bardment. Such strenuous measures seem io 11
have been unexpected by the Islanders, and
they were only too glad to Bettie the
matter by giving fifteen thousand dollars
to the German commander, with which
generous Indemnity he departed In
triumph. By contrast lt is excessively
bum ?Aia Ung to learn that the Haytien Legisla?
ture has kindly agreed to pay the American
claims in twenty years from date. This
arrangement ls worthy ot the pusillanimous
direction of our State department, and appro?
priately supplements the Ileward disgrace, the
treaty muddle and the other remarkable
achievements of the administration. It is not
surprising that the Americans in Port-au-Prince
are about to petition the government to follow
the example ot the Germans, but the idea that
Mr. Fish ls capable of any such decisive action
is, if anything, more ludicrous than the Idea
of walting twenty years for that which another
nation obtained In less than that number of j
hours.
-The tyranny of the New York strikers is
being cooled down somewhat and labor and
capital are getting together by var.ous sorts of j
compromises and concessions, and the activity
among the unions bas died out with the excep?
tion of the committee of twenty which ls en?
gaged In organizing the parade for the 1st of
August. Both sides claim a partial victory,
and both sides are right. The unreasoning
absolutism with which the unions dictate cer?
tain principles to employers, fatal to any
proper adjustment ot the question of wages
and capital, n?s been developed in a report of |
the Brown Stonecutters' Union, and, Incred?
ible* as ft may seem, is vouched for by master
masoQfl of the best Btanding. One of the int?
erdis cimged a bad workman because he was
unskilful, and therefore worse than unprofita?
ble, but he stayed around the shop, and at the
end of the week the union paid him his week's
wages and sent the bill to the boss. To prevent,
friction he paid it, but at the end of the next
seven days a repetition of the outrage oc?
curred, and losing his patience he addressed
the union in vigorous language, but he had
the amount to pay and a fine of one hundred
dollars for insulting the Boclety, or lose con?
tracts worth to him thirty thousand or forty
thousand dollars. Among the r?gulations of
this union is one prohibiting the use of ma?
chinery more than eight hours a day, and for?
bidding an employer to perform manual labor
in his own trade before the lime regularly
allotted for work.

-Look at the letter of County Commis

.here has been scandalous misconduct in the
management of the fiscal affairs of Charles?
ton County.
rite Worm at Work.
The cotton caterpillar bas made its ap?
pearance on James Island. There are two
separate broods, which are scattered thinly
.brough every Held. In 1668, when the cat?
erpillars injured the crop seriously, they did
lot show themselves until July 16. The
present showery weather adds to the danger
3f the situation, and makes the prospects of
[be planters exceedingly gloomy.
It is reported that the caterpillar is at
work in Florida and Texas, as well as in
alabama, and there ia reason for fearing
.hat the growing crop will be cut short. The
Balls and the Bears will do well to remember
lhat the cotton crop is not made until it is
ricked, and that the most critical months of ]
.he year are not yet begun.
-Now comes Ex-Senator Calo, who, at
dewberry,exposes the venality of the Colum?
ba Rings, and declares that a tax of ten
Dills (last year it was about twenty) would
pay all the honest expenses of the State
Government. This begins to look like Re?
form by Republicans, in earnest
Unhappy Boston.
Heine iLimself never ridiculed the uni?
verse. There is nothing funny in space.
Por this reason, doubtless, the attempts to
make fun of Boston and its Jubilee have
seen failures. Yon can't belittle Boston.
Like space and the universe, it is too big.
Not everything nor everybody in Boston is
Dig, but an atmosphere of bigness surrounds
the smallest thing and person there. The
Common is not so large as an ordinary Caro?
lina cotton patch, and the Pond ia a mere
puddle without the mad; but thick or their
histories and the public opinion of Bosto?
nians about them 1 What continent is a cir?
cumstance compared to their Common?
What ocean is more then a drop beside their
Pond beloved?
But the Organ is undoabtedly big; the
Coliseum i3 big, and the Jubilee ia big-a
big failure. So vast a failure could have oc?
curred nowhere else than in Boston. It is a
failure pecuniarily and artistically. That is
the sore thing. Bostonions care nothing
about money; but not to succeed ia a mere
matter of art-ah ! there comes in the gall
abd vitriol. For if the Hub of the Universe
fail in so simple a thing as music, what
next ? Is literature safe ? May not the irate
gods decree the downfall or the Atlantic
Monthly A The Gospel, according to Boston,
must follow, and then comes night, chaos
and a good deal of botheration. For the
Universe cannot spin its little wheel if the
Hub be bnrted. Nor, in that event, can the
wisest man tell where the spokes will rall.
We are sorry for Boston, and will do all
we can to help her. Let her not be down?
hearted. If the worst come to the worst
we will get up one or our dear nice lotteries,
pay Boston's entire losses, without discount,
and have the Coliseum shipped here for use
as a gin-house or as first premium m onr
next lottery.
Tuc Robbers and the.Robbed.
A Northern mao, the other day, said
Sooth Carolinian who was bemoanin,
rascality and corruption of the State ad
iBtration : "You deserve to be robbed il
"do nothing to stop the stealing.",
point of this remark lies in the applier
or iL
Before the present government was f
installed, the schemes for cheating
people began. Out of the fluctuation
the bills receivable, out of the conversk
the bills into State bonds, oat of thc b
pay the interest and principal or the ?
debt in coin, the knowing ones made tei
thousands. As their appetite increased,
branched out into the Land Commit
and kindred schemes; each one represen
so many diamonds, or five-twenties, or
lots, or wine and fast horses for these
put np the job. A year ago the gee
smash came, when the State debt wot
dared to be about $20,000,000; buti
this was turned to good account by S
officers who were in the Beeret. During
session of the Legislature last winter, o
hideous disclosures were made. The
million dollars of taxes, falling due wi
fourteen months, proved to have been wt
insufficient to meet the rapacious demi
of the Bing. New taxes were anthon
which cannot be collected without redui
a host of good citizens to bankruptcy,
interest on the public debt remained nop
the creditors of the State applied in rait
their money. To cap the climax, a
was passed to give nearly two million
lars to the Blue Ridge Riog, and the
tempt was made to make valid, by an ac
Assembly, the bonds which one wing of
Radical party declared to have been isa
in fraud. Since the adjournment of the I
islature the treasury hos been empty,
pnblic schools are closed, the State quai
tine is required to be supported by the <
of Charleston, tho Penitentiary .and the
natic and Deaf and Dumb Asylums are
the last extremity.
Yet the taxpayers make no sign. Ri
cala like Judge Orr, District Attorney C
bin and Representative Bowen, denou
their old chums, and vow that the govi
ment shall be purified. But the mass of
white people, who have all to lose, who
not make politics a trade, are silent as
grave. The answer to every expostulat
is that it is best to allow the rogues to
out, and that a political movement, led
the white taxpayers, would throw back
better Radicals into the extended armt
the Scott-Mackey-Moses crew. But we
talking business, not politics. There i
other ways of punishing rascality than
the ballot-box. When the weapon is put
your hands, Taxpayers of South Carolic
is it not your interest and duty to use
The Taxpayers' Convention, which met
May, 1871, was a grand engine for atla
and defence. That Convention was co
posed of the best men in the State. It wi
all in all, the strongest representative bo
brought together in South Carolina in t
years. It came to nothing, or worse tb
nothing; although it could have been a pi
manently active organization, holding a 8
pervisory control over the financial affairs
the State. This convention ratified a debt
ten million dollars and adjourned. There -w
the end of iL No effort was made to st?
the stealing or to punish the thieves.
But it may be said that there was and
no evidence upon which to found judici
proceedings against the suspected official
There was abundant prima facie cvidenc
there is far more. Passing by the score
ing denunciation cf the Wbittemore-Bow(
report, and the startling charges which
contained, we find a new array of grave a
cuBations in cases now before the courts.
The first case is that of Mr. Gary, ti
State Auditor, who applies for an injunctio
to restrain the State officers from recei vin
the Blue Ridge or Revenue Bond Scrip i
payment of any sums due the State, and t
restrain the County Treasurers from payin
out any money upon the order of the Stat
Treasurer. Auditor Gary maintains thf
the Revenue Bond Scrip is invalid, and bl
counsel allege that Treasurer Purker ba
paid out hundreds of thousands of dollars i
plain violation of law. And Mr. Parker, i
his affidavit, admits that he paid out half
million dollars for the legislative expenses c
last session, and three hundred and Aft
thousand dollars in due-bills on the treasury
Besides this, there are bushels of unpal
pay certificates issued by Lieutenant-Govei
nor Ransier and Speaker Moses. This las
charge was anticipated by Senator Corbin
who, in bis Fourth of July speech, declare*
that Speaker Moses had issued $400,000 o
pay bills to people all over the State, a
bribes to support him and enhance his pop
ularlty. The case of Auditor Gary is nov
before Judge Willard in Columbia.
The second case is that of John M. Mac
kay, of New York, against the Blue Ridge
Railroad ; an application for an injunction tc
restrain tho officers of the road from dispos
lng of any of the Revenue Bond Scrip, anc
for the appointment of a receiver. In hie
complaint Mr. Mackay swears, amongst
other tilings, that the funds of the roaci
were fraudulently misapplied, that large
sums of Bond Scrip were paid to varions
persons, that Treasurer Parker received
$50,000 before he would sign the scrip. Tc
this might be added the current report that
Speaker Moses was paid heavily for his ser?
vices, and that Governor Scott pocketed
$50,000 or more. This case may come up
to-day. To it the City of Charleston has
been made a party by the City Attorney,
Major Corbin.
The third case is that of the Greenville
and Columbia Railroad, which alleges that a
fraudulent issue of $1,500,000 in bonds have
been made.
In the Greenville and Columbia and Blue
Ridge Railroads, and in the charges against
the Ring in general, the same names con?
stantly appear. Governor Scott, Treasurer
Parker, Speaker Moses, Comptroller Nea
gle and "honest" John Patterson are
the persons who ligure in each and
every conspiracy. They, with their agents
and tools, form the Ring. They are
the men whom it is desired to strike. The
New York bondholders are moving, and
have no difficulty in Unding a way to get
into courL Private stockholders and bond?
holders continue to apply for injunctions,
and to throw the Ring on the defensive be?
fore the courts of the State. But the tax?
payers, with all the facts before them, twid?
dle their thumbs, and await the leader who
never comes. They should be most con
ceracd, because the stealings come oat of
their pockets. They are the persons who
should make the fight; who should at least
try to unmask the frauds and punish the
perpetrators.
How long is this inaction, this lying still
tobe kicked, to continue ? How long shall
it be in the power of any man to say that
the people of South Carolina deserve to be
I robbed, because they make no effort to catch
the thieves ?
Tired of War and Strife.
[From the Colombia Phoenix..]
The people are tired of war, war measures,
war politics and sectional hatred and strife,
and are anxious for a restoration of friendly
and confidential relations between the States,
and a return to the ways of peace, and order,
and economy, and civil law.
